摘要

Random grids (RG)-based visual secret sharing (VSS) scheme can easily avoid the pixel expansion problem as well as requires no codebook design. However, previous scheme still suffers from low visual quality. In this paper, a new threshold RG-based VSS scheme aiming at improving the visual quality of the previewed image is presented. Compared with previous schemes, our scheme can gain better visual quality in the reconstructed images as well as (k, n) threshold. In addition, the factor affecting the visual quality is analyzed and the differences between related approaches are discussed.
